I am terribly sorry for your loss.
I knew Gary from Sarah Care, I was
giving him massages there. I thought the world of him.

Only yesterday we walked the halls of Milton High School, hand in hand,and this class has always remained attached at the heart. One by one we are graduating from this life to another plain. Gary LOVED, and was LOVED, what more could we ever hope to obtain in this lifetime. Go in rest my friend and I hope to see you when the bell rings.
